NY AG Letitia James drops the (civil) hammer {On Trump & Family} [9/21/2022]

Yes, and clearly committed perjury, as Forbes demonstrated while he was still testifying. Hasn’t been seen since. See upthread, a few weeks ago.

Yeah. I’m looking at some of that Weisselberg/McConney testimony now:

I’m wondering, though: since we established that this is not simply the penalty phase, but also litigates Causes of Action not dispensed with by Summary Judgment (and not currently under appeal) …

Will we see Weisselberg and McConney again in this go-around.

Hm.

ETA: greatest hits from the above article:

Just as a refresher.

Not this case. It’s in the NY state system, so wouldn’t go to the federally appointed courts. Maybe the Meadows application to have the Georgia case moved to federal court?

I think “Ivanka” is Czech for “I don’t remember”.

The entire trump family seems to have a inherited memory issue. :grinning:

I saw a comment on the the article above saying something like:

Republicans keep harping on Biden’s perceived cognitive issues, but they have no problem with a Republican in a courtroom saying over-and-over “I can’t remember. I can’t remember. I can’t remember.” :laughing:

It’s going great, folks.

Here’s how Ivanka was welcomed to the court today…(protesters shouting “Crime Family, Crime Family, Crime Family!!”)…

I effing LOVE New Yorkers!

“Only the best people” — Donald J. Trump, 2016

Cross examination of Invanka.

From CNN:

Ivanka Trump said her family’s vision for the renovation of the Doral golf resort in Florida was shared with Deutsche Bank in the negotiations process for the funding.

“They were quite excited about it,” she said of Deutsche Bank. “They sent teams of people down to tour the property to visit the property and to experience it in advance of our purchase.”

Donald Trump had a “sentimental affection” for the Doral property in Florida, his daughter said. He would tell her stories about going there as a child with his father and later with her mother, Ivana.

I have to admit I am not a lawyer, but I’m a bit confused about how this family tidbit would excuse fraudulent behavior. What was the point? Do they think this will bring a tear to the judge’s eye?

“Your Honor, we’ve been flinging around quite a bit of it in these proceedings. It stands to reason that we’d get some of it on us eventually.”

/s

From their lips to God’s ears.

And this is going to make any self-respecting entity – corporate or corporeal – ever want to do business with the Trump crime family again?

“There’s a sucker born every minute!” — P.T. Barnum Donald J. Trump

Worst case is: “Here’s $35 million dollars and a nice cushy government job from President Trump. Still have objections?”

Sounds like they’re trying to humanize the unhumanizable. A little too late for that.

Barron should start taking ginkgo biloba NOW, just to be on the safe side.

How long before someone puts that audio on a clip of Cersei’s walk of shame?

You’re kidding right? During Trump’s testimony he responded to a question about a property’s value by talking about China, Russia and Joe Biden’s poll numbers.

If Ivanka wants to talk about her father’s affection for the golf resort, and her wonderful memories of visiting there as a child…at least that tangent mentions the property.
